Just in case you hadn’t seen this from “The Raid” crew, Iko Uwais (who plays Rama) and Yayan Ruhian (who plays Mad Dog) along with director Gareth Evans are shown here at a special preview screening of The Raid 2 last year at Cineworld in London.
The screening was arranged by Film4 Frightfest – the biggest horror film festival run by the Horror Channel and Film4 with co-founder Paul McEvoy taking part in an audience Q&A. After this, the audience was treated to an impressive Pencak Silat demonstration by the film’s lead actors.
Ever since he first saw the great Bruce Lee in Enter The Dragon on the big screen whilst living in Iran, Ramon has been fascinated with martial arts, and at age 6 attended classes in Kan Zen Ryu Karate under Sensei Reza Pirasteh. When he moved to the UK, martial arts came calling in his early teens in the shape of the mysterious art of Ki Aikido which he studied for five years. Since then he has practiced Feng Shou Kung Fu, Lee Style Tai Chi, Taekwondo, Kickboxing before returning to Aikido, studying under Sensei Michael Narey. As well as Bruce Lee, Ramon is a big fan of martial arts actors Jackie Chan, Cynthia Rothrock, Jeff Wincott, Richard Norton and Tadashi Yamashita to name a few. Ramon is an aspiring writer and when he is not honing his craft he likes to go out running, hiking and is still trying to count to ten in Japanese.
